About this map

O'Neil Draw and Walrath Draw carve a system of drainage patterns across this high plains landscape at the Nebraska and Colorado border. Mapping conducted in the early 1960s captures the rural agricultural character of Deuel County and Sedgwick County, where the terrain is marked by intermittent watercourses and scattered infrastructure. The presence of Swan Center Sch in the north and School No 41 further south reflects the distributed nature of early twentieth-century rural education, serving the families who managed the surrounding rangeland. Near the State Line, the Peterson Ditch provides a concrete record of the essential irrigation efforts required to support agriculture in this arid region. This survey was produced as part of the Department of the Interior's efforts for the development of the Missouri River Basin.
